WordPress secures $29 million in funding

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 14:02:00 GMT
Automattic, the parent company of popular open source blogging platform WordPress, announced this week it received $29 million in funding from four investors who will take a minority stake in the company. Though this isn't the first round of financing for the not quite three-year-old company, it has drawn a lot of notice because one of the investors is the New York Times. It's an unusual pairing of two industries -- blogging and conventional media -- typically thought to be at odds with each other.

function::ctime

FUNCTION:(3stap)					      Time utility functions						  FUNCTION:(3stap)

NAME
function::ctime - Convert seconds since epoch into human readable date/time string SYNOPSIS
ctime:string(epochsecs:long) ARGUMENTS
epochsecs Number of seconds since epoch (as returned by gettimeofday_s) DESCRIPTION
Takes an argument of seconds since the epoch as returned by gettimeofday_s. Returns a string of the form "Wed Jun 30 21:49:08 1993" The string will always be exactly 24 characters. If the time would be unreasonable far in the past (before what can be represented with a 32 bit offset in seconds from the epoch) the returned string will be "a long, long time ago...". If the time would be unreasonable far in the future the returned string will be "far far in the future..." (both these strings are also 24 characters wide). Note that the epoch (zero) corresponds to "Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970" The earliest full date given by ctime, corresponding to epochsecs -2147483648 is "Fri Dec 13 20:45:52 1901". The latest full date given by ctime, corresponding to epochsecs 2147483647 is "Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038". The abbreviations for the days of the week are 'Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', and 'Sat'. The abbreviations for the months are 'Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', and 'Dec'. Note that the real C library ctime function puts a newline (' ') character at the end of the string that this function does not. Also note that since the kernel has no concept of timezones, the returned time is always in GMT. SystemTap Tapset Reference May 2013 FUNCTION:(3stap)
